Section 9.1 Estimating a Population Proportion Bird Flu: As a potential worldwide pandemic, avian influenza H5N1 (commonly called the bird flu) poses a serious health risk. As of January 24, 2012, there have been 583 human cases of this virus in the world. Of these cases, 344 have resulted in death. Consider the outcomes of these cases as a random sample of all possible outcomes. Find a point estimate for the proportion of people who would die if infected with...

1. Salal (Gaultheria shallon) is a shrub native to western North America. The young leaves and the dark blue berries of the shrub are edible, and both have been long used by indigenous people in western Canada. The berries in particular are commonly used as a sweetener in cooking. In a particular region of Vancouver Island, 10 dark blue salal berries were randomly sampled and their diameters were measured, giving a mean of 8.29 mm and a standard deviation of...

For this problem, carry at least four digits after the decimal in your calculations. Answers may vary slightly due to rounding. In a survey of 1000 large corporations, 240 said that, given a choice between a job candidate who smokes and an equally qualified nonsmoker, the nonsmoker would get the job.

Problem 2. "Do you think we are prepared for another terrorist attack?" Public opinion pollsters report the results of such poll questions as the proportion who respond affirmatively (ie, they say YES) and a "margin of error." By "margin of error," they mean the quantity that is added to, and subtracted from, the point estimate to get the upper and lower confidence limits. Suppose that you work for such a pollster, and that you...
